Hello and welcome.

fire in our number three of the podcast original recipe
on this the nineteenth day of September, Happy Thursday to you.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
John Gruden. Is he back?
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Not yet, but John Gruden is interested in a return
to coaching. He wants to coach college football. Thumbs up
or thumbs down to college football being interested in John Gruden.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
And Urban Meyer.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Urban Meyer has publicly closed the door to ever coaching
the Florida Gators again.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Does this end that storyline?
Speaker 2 (00:39):
And what is the lesson for Dion Sanders Colorado ratings collapses,
They've lost half the audience, A bitter pill to swallow
for Dion. We'll get to all that and more right
now here. It is our number three. Everyone hop in
the old chuck wagon. You gotta hop in the old
(01:00):
chuck wagon. Well come, in the beginning of another hour
of the Ben Mather Show. We are in the air everywhere, amigos,

Speaker 2 (01:50):
I'm in the Terrible ivan, lives in Houston, and he's
seen his favorite baseball team cheat ten thousand times. He's
eving the Terrible, but he always has an excuse, always
has an excuse. But our lead this hour is not
from baseball. No, no, no, we go to the carousel.
(02:13):
You're probably saying, well, come on, it's September. There's no carousel. Well,
there is a carousel, the wacky place known as the
coaching carousel, and well it certainly will not get cranked
up for a while. An old name, a familiar face
is returned, trying to rise like the phoenix from the ashes.
You might have seen this, maybe not, Maybe you were
(02:34):
not paying attention. You might have missed it, but the
chance you saw it. For NFL head coach and at
one time beloved pitchman for Hooters, along with a passionate
broadcasting career, John Gruden, the old chuck Wagon. John Gruden
(02:54):
says he is interested in returning to the sidelines.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Oh shocking, it's been nearly three years. Can you believe
it's been.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Nearly three years since the NFL strategically and surgically cut
John Gruden out of the NFL, forcing him to resign
as coach of the Raiders with a strategic hit. As
Brent Musburger said, it was mob style bringing in the goombahs.
So he was the coach of the Raiders, the Raiders
(03:24):
wanted to keep him, and then the NFL using some
friends in the media, the believe the Wall Street Journal
and the New York Times. Somehow these emails got out,
but only John Gruden's emails and not emails from other
people who are also.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Saying similar things.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But anyway, Gruden says he believes he is ready for
a job. He would like a college job, even like
a college football coaching job.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
So the question is whether or not that.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
He's so so messy his reputation. Gruden that he is
still untouch that he's got a stigma because of with
the emails that got out, So let us discuss John
Gruden interested in coaching collegiate football you're gonna go thumbs
up or thumbs down? Is college football interested in John Gruden?
(04:19):
So I've got Cinderella, Oligark, and the Iron Chef, and
we will combine all of these things together, and we
are going to make the circus Welcome to the audio
Circus under the big top fun for all ages. Come one,
come all. You will not believe your eyes, all right,
so first of all, or in this case, your ears.
(04:40):
So the first thing I have, I'm gonna go thumbs up.
I'm gonna go I'll go two thumbs up, not just one.
Two thumbs up on Gruden coaching college football. And it
is a numbers game. It is a numbers game. There
are thirty two last I checked, thirty two NFL head
coaching jobs in college, and really there's only thirty one
because the Steelers never get rid of coaches unless they
(05:02):
leave on their own, like Tomlin's got tenured professor employment
in Pittsburgh. So, but there are thirty two NFL head
coaching jobs in college. You have one hundred and thirty one,
one hundred and thirty four D one gigs. It's the
top level D one. They call it something else, but
we're old school we call it D one. So I
did the math. I broke it down even further, thinning
(05:23):
the herd right, you know, kind of rounding off the
edges there. So there are thirty six plum gigs, not
all of them plumb, but big ten jobs. For example,
Indiana's in their Northwestern those are not great jobs, but
they're in the Big ten Southeastern Conference Southern Fried football.
There are thirty you can buy that, so Big ten
(05:44):
SEC thirty six jobs can I fail to do that.
So both those come on Big ten SEC. So that
also includes Vanderbilt. You got Indiana, Vanderbilt, you know teams
they are usually pretty bad. Mississippi State not doing really
well right now. Then there's another thirty three that are
higher profile in the Atlantic Coast Conference and the Big Twelve.
(06:06):
So combined the thirty six and the Big ten in
the SEC and the thirty three in the ACC in
the Big twelve, my computer like mind tells me that's
up to sixty nine college jobs that Gruden could land. Now,
there are some of those jobs that would never hire
John Gruden at all. That he's got high levels of
toxicity because of the emails that were described at the
(06:29):
time as racist, anti gay and misogynistic, kind of like
an angry bill phone call. So Gruden is set up
for what he's set up for, the old Cinderella story.
You look at the story riding in in entertainment and
its rise fall, rise, or its fall rise fall again.
(06:55):
But this would be the Cinderella story, right, the pattern
of Cinderella, who rise is from? In this case John Gruden,
you know no name guy that wanted to become a
coach and then became a coach, and then he got
abused along the way by not his step mother and
stepsister like Cinderella, but I guess like the Roger Goodell
in the NFL Big Shots. Then finally he meets in
(07:18):
this case, I guess the uh, it wouldn't be the prince.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
I guess we got to touch up the work on this.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
But he falls back from a negative into a positive
and lives heavily, you know, happily ever after again and
all that stuff. So it goes rise, fall, rise again.
It's the Cinderella storyline. And who would be the prince
in this story?
Speaker 1 (07:41):
For Gruden?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
So the obvious one is the seminoles of Florida State.
He's a Florida guy. He's got a compound in Tampa.
I know that's not Tallahassee, but you know that's a
it's an acc job. But they'd be willing to bring
John Gruden. And how about Ucla? Did you see John
Gruden and Ucla? They appear to not have a coach,
(08:06):
although you wouldn't know that from Brian Finley who does
propaganda for UCLA. But they're terrible. They got run off
the field by Indiana over the weekend. So those are
two right off the top of my head. Now turning
the page, we go out to Gainesville and a mad
questions speaking of coaches who are in some trouble. Billy
(08:27):
Napier his job secured to Florida. They are off to
the one and two start on the young college football season.
It sounds like there is an option that this is
not a John Gruden story. By the way, about a
former Gators coach. During a recent podcast appearance, why because
Everyone's got a podcast, Urban Meyer Urban Meyer shot down
(08:56):
a return to Gainesville and said, no, no, not gonna happen.
He says that ship has sailed, is the way he
described it. So let us discuss this. Now, former Jags
and Ohio State and Florida and Utah coach Urban Meyer
publicly closing the door on coaching the Florida Gators. Again,
(09:17):
does that end the story? Does it end the storyline?
Not by a long shot, Not by a long shot,
because I know, and you know, we've been around, we
know how this works in college sports. The college sports
operations are run the football and basketball, but mainly the
football are run by the boosters. And so all it
(09:40):
takes is one oligark who happened to hang out at
the swamp when they were in college. And now they're
big muckety MUCKs. So they've got deep pockets, a powerful
Florida booster, and that can launch.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Back to Gainesville.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
Right.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
It's one of these things.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
It's like, whoever the next coach is, somebody's got to
pay for the next coach, and somebody's also got to
pay for the current coach to go away, Billy Napier.
And so if they really want Urban Meyer, and Urban
would be going willing to go back, why not? And
as far as Urban talking about, hey, that ship has sailed,
you can always go out. If you got enough money,
(10:24):
you can buy a gold plated tugboat and you can
bring the ship back to Doc and Urban is sixty
years old, which means he's probably got another five to
ten years, assuming he has good health before somebody puts
him out to Pastor in terms of coaching.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
All right, final thought?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
We go to TV land Malar's show follow up, Malor's
show follow up? Where have the Eyeball's gone? Where have
the Eyeball's gone? Well, turns out things are not going
well for Colorado football. Through their first three nationally televised games,
Dion Sanders, coach Pram and Colorado have averaged four point
(11:07):
five million viewers per outing. They have lost over fifty
percent of their television audience.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
They have gone away.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
They had nine point three five million on average last
year and now just four point five million. What is
the lesson from Dion Sanders? Colorado ratings collapse?
Speaker 1 (11:35):
What is the lesson?
Speaker 2 (11:37):
So the lesson is rather sim about Dion and I'm
a deon fan. But Dion, he continues to talk to
talk and the team has not been able to do
the old walkerty walk right, discerning customers have found more
interesting things to do with their time.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
It is no longer.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Must see TV because Colorado under we get run off
the field by Nebraska, for example. And as they say
on the Iron Chef Dion Sanders, buffaloes have been all sizzle.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
And no steak. And you need some protein. You need
some protein.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
And you get the vibe watching Colorado that a lot
of it's based on luck, and luck is not a
sustainable business model.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
It just isn't. It is not a sustainable business model.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It is the Bennett Mallar Show. We hope this is
a sustainable model. If you'd like to be part, you

I don't know why they changed, but they changed. I'm
sure they have a good reason to change the name.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
I was a cool football player back in high school,
so I hung out with the cool kids, played football
and all that.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
So, yeah, that was my craft, Eddie.
Speaker 7 (32:53):
That was kind of a mix. It wasn't really one
group because I did a lot of different things. I
was in the band, I played football, I had like
my best friend was like a rocker, the full extended
dance it was. It was, it was not It was
not one like specific click.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
It was just a group. Is not answering the question, right,
I hung out with my dance girls. There you go. See,
that's how you answer the question. We had one whole
hallway to ourselves. That's that's the way to do it. Uh.
Speaker 10 (33:21):
Well, if that's Eddie's answer, that that's the answer answer
I am. My answer is the same. I was a drifter.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
I hung out with what you could have just said,
I'm a drifter booth.
Speaker 7 (33:31):
I wouldn't consider a drifter.
Speaker 10 (33:33):
Well.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
I hung out with people in different groups.
Speaker 10 (33:36):
I hung out with the goth kids sometimes, hung out
with you seem a little gothy. I hung out with
the nerds sometimes and then then the cool kids sometimes.
Speaker 1 (33:49):

The King Rory wants to know when is the last
time you willingly wade yourself.
Speaker 7 (34:05):
Willingly like somebody had not a gunpoint will the doctor
they make you?
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Yeah? Like, well, when I found out they were going
to pick up the TV show, I started panicking.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
I was like, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
So I did weigh myself and then I went on
a like extended I didn't eat like for weeks at
a time. It was ridiculous. So that would be the
last time. A few months back, what about you, Eddie.
Speaker 7 (34:29):
I've been. I've actually been doing it a lot recently
because I'm I'm sort of dieting, so I'm trying to
keep track of things.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Are you gonna diet in Pittsburgh any No, No, of
course you better not diet. You're gonna go to the
sandwich shop.
Speaker 7 (34:40):
You're gonna Yeah, we'll go to money.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
You go to the one in the Steel District, the
original one that's there's a sign.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
That's where I met Pete and Pittsburgh and the bread
man and the dough boy, all three of them were there.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
It's a magical night, Lorena. I do it all the
time for fun. Ben Well, yeah, I fluctuate while I sleep.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
If I weighed as much as you did, I would
weigh myself all the time too. What about you, Akoboalop?
I think it was like yesterday, all right, don't you
you weigh less? I was told in the morning, Yah,
what is our morning?
Speaker 8 (35:14):
I know?
Speaker 1 (35:14):
That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 10 (35:15):
Right after you wake up, is when you weigh the
least if you digested at all, because your body's balls. Yeah,
you haven't eaten anything yet for the day, and all right,
I don't know what that's I think.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
That's the ask. Ben, Your questions are all right. So
I really like this question. I don't know if if
you guys would like it.
Speaker 10 (35:36):
But masshole Mickey wants to know if you could have
one meal prepared by a famous chef, who would it
be and what would you get?
Speaker 2 (35:45):
Hmmm, Yes, I don't like the celebrity Anthony Bourday. He's dead,
so he can't.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
It would be difficult. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (35:53):
I was wondering that too, like can you pick somebody
dead because in the question, like in the tweet, he
put a gift of Julia Child so and she's long dead,
so she's.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Dead dead yeah, good dead. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (36:09):
I don't I don't know.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
I mean I know names and just I don't know
there's a specific meal, but I mean I'm just like
a truck stop like barbecue.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Guy, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
I mean I love Bucky's barbecue sandwich is and and
chicken fingers and all that. So I wish I had
a great answer, but I I mean, there's nothing that
pops into my mind. I like Emerald Legassi, you know
that kind.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
Of stuff like that guy.
Speaker 7 (36:33):
I mean, I guess I would have to do some
research and find out who the best barbecue chef.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Is is there such a thing as Yeah?
Speaker 7 (36:39):
Yeah, absolutely, and whoever whoever that is. You know, we
have some brisket.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Oh yeah, brisky. You know, there's a time you get
her now. But there's a casino in southern California really
good brisket. I talked about my podcast, Well what about.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
You, Lorraine.
Speaker 10 (36:55):
Well, I didn't realize he actually had a picture of
Julia Child's but I was thinking Julia Child and her
French onion soup.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
That's what I want. That's all you found Any good
French onion soup around here in la I haven't no.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
The last good French onion soup I had was it
Red Robin in Oregon, And I don't think that's a
good example. There's a place in New York my brother
was really good, but I'm not in New York very often.
So if anybody knows good French, I love French.
Speaker 7 (37:19):
Was so good?
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Yeah, so good, coop? All right? So I have two
answers to this.
Speaker 10 (37:25):
I have never been to his restaurants, so I've never
tried his food, but I would really want like something
from Joel Robashan very you know, highly regarded chef as
far as the chef that I have tried and I
know I like, And the safe bet would be Wolfgang Puck.
Speaker 7 (37:44):
By the way, an internet search says Aaron Franklin is
the world famous barbecue pitmaster.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
I've heard of him, who.
Speaker 7 (37:51):
Took the world by storm, and his hands down the
best known grill master.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Good for it, all, right, what is next? Just ask Ben?
Speaker 2 (37:57):
Your questions are answer to the rest of the hour.
This art puffin high art puffin.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
He wants to know have you ever dated a co
worker pre marriage? Of course?
Speaker 2 (38:13):
Yeah, yeah, when I was early on and my Yeah,
I did date to work at the radio station.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
I think that was a rite of passage, right Eddie,
back in the day when you get into radio.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
Maybe not for you, but.
Speaker 7 (38:27):
Yeah, I tried, but they weren't interested in me. I know,
I had never dated somebody i'll work with.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Well, I didn't directly work with this person, but they
did work in radio Lorena.
Speaker 10 (38:37):
I don't date Ben, but I have hung out with
multiple co workers throughout my life.
Speaker 1 (38:43):
Oh, by the way, Eddie, I'm sure you have, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
You gotta you gotta recreate Eddie the photo that Al
found of me at at PERMANI brothers there with bread
Man and Pete and Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
Uh Coop, no, I never have no never no what never?
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Well, it is mostly dudes in sports uhrue sports radio. Yeah,
that's that's little. The odds are against that anyway. All right,
that is it there it is ask men, your questions
are answers. If you like this, we do it every
weekend about this time. If you don't like it, it's
only once a week who cares. And if you really
really like it, we do a ripoff version which is

It's an amazing thing. Yes, yes, I know. Shocking.
Hello and welcome.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
John Gruden. Is he back?
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Not yet, but John Gruden is interested in a return
to coaching. He wants to coach college football. Thumbs up
or thumbs down to college football being interested in John Gruden.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
And Urban Meyer.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Urban Meyer has publicly closed the door to ever coaching
the Florida Gators again.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Does this end that storyline?
Speaker 2 (00:39):
And what is the lesson for Dion Sanders Colorado ratings collapses,
They've lost half the audience, A bitter pill to swallow
for Dion. We'll get to all that and more right
now here. It is our number three. Everyone hop in
the old chuck wagon. You gotta hop in the old
(01:00):
chuck wagon. Well come, in the beginning of another hour
of the Ben Mather Show. We are in the air everywhere, amigos,

I'm in the Terrible ivan, lives in Houston, and he's
seen his favorite baseball team cheat ten thousand times. He's
eving the Terrible, but he always has an excuse, always
has an excuse. But our lead this hour is not
from baseball. No, no, no, we go to the carousel.
(02:13):
You're probably saying, well, come on, it's September. There's no carousel. Well,
there is a carousel, the wacky place known as the
coaching carousel, and well it certainly will not get cranked
up for a while. An old name, a familiar face
is returned, trying to rise like the phoenix from the ashes.
You might have seen this, maybe not, Maybe you were
(02:34):
not paying attention. You might have missed it, but the
chance you saw it. For NFL head coach and at
one time beloved pitchman for Hooters, along with a passionate
broadcasting career, John Gruden, the old chuck Wagon. John Gruden
(02:54):
says he is interested in returning to the sidelines.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Oh shocking, it's been nearly three years. Can you believe
it's been.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Nearly three years since the NFL strategically and surgically cut
John Gruden out of the NFL, forcing him to resign
as coach of the Raiders with a strategic hit. As
Brent Musburger said, it was mob style bringing in the goombahs.
So he was the coach of the Raiders, the Raiders
(03:24):
wanted to keep him, and then the NFL using some
friends in the media, the believe the Wall Street Journal
and the New York Times. Somehow these emails got out,
but only John Gruden's emails and not emails from other
people who are also.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Saying similar things.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But anyway, Gruden says he believes he is ready for
a job. He would like a college job, even like
a college football coaching job.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
So the question is whether or not that.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
He's so so messy his reputation. Gruden that he is
still untouch that he's got a stigma because of with
the emails that got out, So let us discuss John
Gruden interested in coaching collegiate football you're gonna go thumbs
up or thumbs down? Is college football interested in John Gruden?
(04:19):
So I've got Cinderella, Oligark, and the Iron Chef, and
we will combine all of these things together, and we
are going to make the circus Welcome to the audio
Circus under the big top fun for all ages. Come one,
come all. You will not believe your eyes, all right,
so first of all, or in this case, your ears.
(04:40):
So the first thing I have, I'm gonna go thumbs up.
I'm gonna go I'll go two thumbs up, not just one.
Two thumbs up on Gruden coaching college football. And it
is a numbers game. It is a numbers game. There
are thirty two last I checked, thirty two NFL head
coaching jobs in college, and really there's only thirty one
because the Steelers never get rid of coaches unless they
(05:02):
leave on their own, like Tomlin's got tenured professor employment
in Pittsburgh. So, but there are thirty two NFL head
coaching jobs in college. You have one hundred and thirty one,
one hundred and thirty four D one gigs. It's the
top level D one. They call it something else, but
we're old school we call it D one. So I
did the math. I broke it down even further, thinning
(05:23):
the herd right, you know, kind of rounding off the
edges there. So there are thirty six plum gigs, not
all of them plumb, but big ten jobs. For example,
Indiana's in their Northwestern those are not great jobs, but
they're in the Big ten Southeastern Conference Southern Fried football.
There are thirty you can buy that, so Big ten
(05:44):
SEC thirty six jobs can I fail to do that.
So both those come on Big ten SEC. So that
also includes Vanderbilt. You got Indiana, Vanderbilt, you know teams
they are usually pretty bad. Mississippi State not doing really
well right now. Then there's another thirty three that are
higher profile in the Atlantic Coast Conference and the Big Twelve.
(06:06):
So combined the thirty six and the Big ten in
the SEC and the thirty three in the ACC in
the Big twelve, my computer like mind tells me that's
up to sixty nine college jobs that Gruden could land. Now,
there are some of those jobs that would never hire
John Gruden at all. That he's got high levels of
toxicity because of the emails that were described at the
(06:29):
time as racist, anti gay and misogynistic, kind of like
an angry bill phone call. So Gruden is set up
for what he's set up for, the old Cinderella story.
You look at the story riding in in entertainment and
its rise fall, rise, or its fall rise fall again.
(06:55):
But this would be the Cinderella story, right, the pattern
of Cinderella, who rise is from? In this case John Gruden,
you know no name guy that wanted to become a
coach and then became a coach, and then he got
abused along the way by not his step mother and
stepsister like Cinderella, but I guess like the Roger Goodell
in the NFL Big Shots. Then finally he meets in
(07:18):
this case, I guess the uh, it wouldn't be the prince.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
I guess we got to touch up the work on this.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
But he falls back from a negative into a positive
and lives heavily, you know, happily ever after again and
all that stuff. So it goes rise, fall, rise again.
It's the Cinderella storyline. And who would be the prince
in this story?
Speaker 1 (07:41):
For Gruden?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
So the obvious one is the seminoles of Florida State.
He's a Florida guy. He's got a compound in Tampa.
I know that's not Tallahassee, but you know that's a
it's an acc job. But they'd be willing to bring
John Gruden. And how about Ucla? Did you see John
Gruden and Ucla? They appear to not have a coach,
(08:06):
although you wouldn't know that from Brian Finley who does
propaganda for UCLA. But they're terrible. They got run off
the field by Indiana over the weekend. So those are
two right off the top of my head. Now turning
the page, we go out to Gainesville and a mad
questions speaking of coaches who are in some trouble. Billy
(08:27):
Napier his job secured to Florida. They are off to
the one and two start on the young college football season.
It sounds like there is an option that this is
not a John Gruden story. By the way, about a
former Gators coach. During a recent podcast appearance, why because
Everyone's got a podcast, Urban Meyer Urban Meyer shot down
(08:56):
a return to Gainesville and said, no, no, not gonna happen.
He says that ship has sailed, is the way he
described it. So let us discuss this. Now, former Jags
and Ohio State and Florida and Utah coach Urban Meyer
publicly closing the door on coaching the Florida Gators. Again,
(09:17):
does that end the story? Does it end the storyline?
Not by a long shot, Not by a long shot,
because I know, and you know, we've been around, we
know how this works in college sports. The college sports
operations are run the football and basketball, but mainly the
football are run by the boosters. And so all it
(09:40):
takes is one oligark who happened to hang out at
the swamp when they were in college. And now they're
big muckety MUCKs. So they've got deep pockets, a powerful
Florida booster, and that can launch.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Back to Gainesville.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
Right.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
It's one of these things.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
It's like, whoever the next coach is, somebody's got to
pay for the next coach, and somebody's also got to
pay for the current coach to go away, Billy Napier.
And so if they really want Urban Meyer, and Urban
would be going willing to go back, why not? And
as far as Urban talking about, hey, that ship has sailed,
you can always go out. If you got enough money,
(10:24):
you can buy a gold plated tugboat and you can
bring the ship back to Doc and Urban is sixty
years old, which means he's probably got another five to
ten years, assuming he has good health before somebody puts
him out to Pastor in terms of coaching.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
All right, final thought?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
We go to TV land Malar's show follow up, Malor's
show follow up? Where have the Eyeball's gone? Where have
the Eyeball's gone? Well, turns out things are not going
well for Colorado football. Through their first three nationally televised games,
Dion Sanders, coach Pram and Colorado have averaged four point
(11:07):
five million viewers per outing. They have lost over fifty
percent of their television audience.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
They have gone away.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
They had nine point three five million on average last
year and now just four point five million. What is
the lesson from Dion Sanders? Colorado ratings collapse?
Speaker 1 (11:35):
What is the lesson?
Speaker 2 (11:37):
So the lesson is rather sim about Dion and I'm
a deon fan. But Dion, he continues to talk to
talk and the team has not been able to do
the old walkerty walk right, discerning customers have found more
interesting things to do with their time.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
It is no longer.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Must see TV because Colorado under we get run off
the field by Nebraska, for example. And as they say
on the Iron Chef Dion Sanders, buffaloes have been all sizzle.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
And no steak. And you need some protein. You need
some protein.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
And you get the vibe watching Colorado that a lot
of it's based on luck, and luck is not a
sustainable business model.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
It just isn't. It is not a sustainable business model.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It is the Bennett Mallar Show. We hope this is
a sustainable model. If you'd like to be part, you

I hung out with people in different groups.
Speaker 10 (33:36):
I hung out with the goth kids sometimes, hung out
with you seem a little gothy. I hung out with
the nerds sometimes and then then the cool kids sometimes.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
All right, what is next year? To ask?
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Being?
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Your questions are answers? Send a question in and hashtag
ask ben on x X marks the spot. How don't
I seem gothy? No, you don't see Uh?
Speaker 10 (34:01):
The King Rory wants to know when is the last
time you willingly wade yourself.
Speaker 7 (34:05):
Willingly like somebody had not a gunpoint will the doctor
they make you?
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Yeah? Like, well, when I found out they were going
to pick up the TV show, I started panicking.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
I was like, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
So I did weigh myself and then I went on
a like extended I didn't eat like for weeks at
a time. It was ridiculous. So that would be the
last time. A few months back, what about you, Eddie.
Speaker 7 (34:29):
I've been. I've actually been doing it a lot recently
because I'm I'm sort of dieting, so I'm trying to
keep track of things.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Are you gonna diet in Pittsburgh any No, No, of
course you better not diet. You're gonna go to the
sandwich shop.
Speaker 7 (34:40):
You're gonna Yeah, we'll go to money.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
You go to the one in the Steel District, the
original one that's there's a sign.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
That's where I met Pete and Pittsburgh and the bread
man and the dough boy, all three of them were there.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
It's a magical night, Lorena. I do it all the
time for fun. Ben Well, yeah, I fluctuate while I sleep.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
If I weighed as much as you did, I would
weigh myself all the time too. What about you, Akoboalop?
I think it was like yesterday, all right, don't you
you weigh less? I was told in the morning, Yah,
what is our morning?
Speaker 8 (35:14):
I know?
Speaker 1 (35:14):
That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 10 (35:15):
Right after you wake up, is when you weigh the
least if you digested at all, because your body's balls. Yeah,
you haven't eaten anything yet for the day, and all right,
I don't know what that's I think.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
That's the ask. Ben, Your questions are all right. So
I really like this question. I don't know if if
you guys would like it.
Speaker 10 (35:36):
But masshole Mickey wants to know if you could have
one meal prepared by a famous chef, who would it
be and what would you get?
Speaker 2 (35:45):
Hmmm, Yes, I don't like the celebrity Anthony Bourday. He's dead,
so he can't.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
It would be difficult. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (35:53):
I was wondering that too, like can you pick somebody
dead because in the question, like in the tweet, he
put a gift of Julia Child so and she's long dead,
so she's.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Dead dead yeah, good dead. Yeah.
Speaker 10 (36:09):
I don't I don't know.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
I mean I know names and just I don't know
there's a specific meal, but I mean I'm just like
a truck stop like barbecue.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Guy, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
I mean I love Bucky's barbecue sandwich is and and
chicken fingers and all that. So I wish I had
a great answer, but I I mean, there's nothing that
pops into my mind. I like Emerald Legassi, you know
that kind.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
Of stuff like that guy.
Speaker 7 (36:33):
I mean, I guess I would have to do some
research and find out who the best barbecue chef.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Is is there such a thing as Yeah?
Speaker 7 (36:39):
Yeah, absolutely, and whoever whoever that is. You know, we
have some brisket.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Oh yeah, brisky. You know, there's a time you get
her now. But there's a casino in southern California really
good brisket. I talked about my podcast, Well what about.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
You, Lorraine.
Speaker 10 (36:55):
Well, I didn't realize he actually had a picture of
Julia Child's but I was thinking Julia Child and her
French onion soup.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
That's what I want. That's all you found Any good
French onion soup around here in la I haven't no.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
The last good French onion soup I had was it
Red Robin in Oregon, And I don't think that's a
good example. There's a place in New York my brother
was really good, but I'm not in New York very often.
So if anybody knows good French, I love French.
Speaker 7 (37:19):
Was so good?
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Yeah, so good, coop? All right? So I have two
answers to this.
Speaker 10 (37:25):
I have never been to his restaurants, so I've never
tried his food, but I would really want like something
from Joel Robashan very you know, highly regarded chef as
far as the chef that I have tried and I
know I like, And the safe bet would be Wolfgang Puck.
Speaker 7 (37:44):
By the way, an internet search says Aaron Franklin is
the world famous barbecue pitmaster.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
I've heard of him, who.
Speaker 7 (37:51):
Took the world by storm, and his hands down the
best known grill master.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Good for it, all, right, what is next? Just ask Ben?
Speaker 2 (37:57):
Your questions are answer to the rest of the hour.
This art puffin high art puffin.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
He wants to know have you ever dated a co
worker pre marriage? Of course?
Speaker 2 (38:13):
Yeah, yeah, when I was early on and my Yeah,
I did date to work at the radio station.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
I think that was a rite of passage, right Eddie,
back in the day when you get into radio.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
Maybe not for you, but.
Speaker 7 (38:27):
Yeah, I tried, but they weren't interested in me. I know,
I had never dated somebody i'll work with.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Well, I didn't directly work with this person, but they
did work in radio Lorena.
Speaker 10 (38:37):
I don't date Ben, but I have hung out with
multiple co workers throughout my life.
Speaker 1 (38:43):
Oh, by the way, Eddie, I'm sure you have, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
You gotta you gotta recreate Eddie the photo that Al
found of me at at PERMANI brothers there with bread
Man and Pete and Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
Uh Coop, no, I never have no never no what never?
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Well, it is mostly dudes in sports uhrue sports radio. Yeah,
that's that's little. The odds are against that anyway. All right,
that is it there it is ask men, your questions
are answers. If you like this, we do it every
weekend about this time. If you don't like it, it's
